    thought about ordering a lift kit, but looks like I’m gonna have a new project soon. Need to figure out how I’m gonna explain that one to the misses.

    Its a lot more low key than the usual "hey look at me I totally offroad but really don't" snorkels that 99% of people have.

    I keep reading it’s a harsh ride with OME though. Might wait until Eibach is back in stock. I love their lift kit on my Tacoma. Rides fantastic.

    Not sure about best/cheapest, but got mine from MetalTech awhile back. Still the same price as it was when I ordered ($945ish) and it shipped pretty quick.

    Literally just started the removal of the stock shit this afternoon...

    Hit ure this weekend with my 4runner friends. The gx did great. Not surprising at all. But man the bumper is so low compared to the runner. These are pretty much the only pics we took in 4.5hrs of wheeling

    I've had OME on two tacomas and a 4runner and the ride was great/good.

    If you get the proper sling rate they will ride good, I’ve done two OME pieced together kits and my 4runner the front spring rates were a bit much and it rode rough. The Tacoma rides very well IMO all things considered.

    price... price being all things

    Purple not this time. It will be getting some awesome exterior treatment. As for LT probably 2yrs or so. Got some things to do before that happens
